LLMs don’t have a will of their own and will (very likely) never have one, they aren’t an entity or anything that can have a sense of self. They are a compressed dataset with a next token prediction engine. From the token prediction + compl

You’re also not allowed to record anyone without their explicit consent if there is an expectation of privacy, even in public spaces. That makes the device use very likely to be illegal (assuming you use it to record videos in public spaces

My Apple Watch broke, I replaced it with a Casio with an Ollee Watch board. It doesn’t have the fancy features but it’s so nice to not have to ever think about the battery life! I wish the firmware was open source, there is a few features I

It was one of the earliest “create a whole web app from a prompt” type of product IIRC. The space is now more than crowded

And maybe add blockchains to the mix to be sure no compute seconds ever go idle

We knowingly fucked up and doomed the world (at least for humans to comfortably flourish). So, yeah, I guess we can say that about rainforests too, but that applies to pretty much everywhere. There is no going back. We already know the clim

Ah, I was waiting for this to happen! That will be interesting to follow. From my non-lawyer read of German laws that should be a n easy win for the advocacy group, but I’m interested to see Meta’s arguments

I hate that framing because it glosses over what makes AI distinct from other technology. Pretty much anything can be used as a tool, that’s not an interesting aspect of AI. However standard tools do not take decisions on behalf of the user

Do you have examples? Ideally a startup that isn’t itself selling AI to other AI companies

Or LLMs will end up being the local optimum we organize society around and sacrifice everything to, and end up not being the child dream of infinite wealth and benefits the AI boosters believe in. laissez-faire capitalism tends to result in

It’s definitely niche!

I’m talking specifically about the AI industry

by dgellow 3mo ago
So, you mean that it will run its own AI agent, which itself also has its own computer, which will be used to run its own agent, which so has its own computer…

It’s regularly enforced… are your local laws pointless because other countries aren’t concerned? Is free speech in the US pointless because North Korea or China doesn’t respect it?

You missed the point. I’m well aware python has formatters, I use them and implemented my own. The point was that when generating/manipulating python code you cannot just generate in whatever format then run a formatter. you need to ca

Damn, that sounds pretty bad

People do breach laws, yes. I don’t understand your point

That’s the case in germany. Unless you give your explicit consent of course

That’s hilarious, was that already known?

Malls in Berlin and Hamburg are also pretty crowded, fwiw

And everybody in the chain can even justify their improved efficiency! It‘s capitalism endgoal. A massive Goldberg machine, where each piece can be optimized, but overall does produce close to no value compared to its cost and effort

LLM is really an anti human technology. The incentives that creates are terrible for society

What does that have to do with 3d printing? And are you anti-3d print? That’s a position I’ve never seen, mind sharing a bit more details?

It’s an issue when generating python, I can tell you from experience. It’s also a pain to not be able to safely rely on an auto formatter

Are you all comfortable with the idea of agents running non stop with access to all your accounts? I would be so anxious all the time, thinking they would leak or delete my personal data, or get hijacked via prompt injection or a security v
